Prospective alternate Tanner Payne introduces himself to planning commission
Summary
Tanner Payne, a recent Ohio resident, introduced himself to the South Russell Planning Commission and expressed interest in serving as an alternate; commissioners encouraged him to attend meetings and noted alternates help when the board lacks a full quorum.
Tanner Payne introduced himself near the end of the March 12 meeting, saying he moved to the area about three and a half years ago and is exploring opportunities to volunteer on village committees. Payne said he was interested in learning about the planning commission and possibly serving as an alternate.
Commissioners described the alternate role: alternates are invited to attend meetings and may sit in when members are absent, helping ensure a full board for decision-making. Members encouraged Payne to continue attending meetings and said having alternates is helpful when regular members cannot attend.
The commission did not take a formal appointment at the meeting; Payne was invited to continue attending and the group said they would consider alternates when vacancies are being filled.
